Former Ripple executives have systematically sold some of their $ 9 billion XRP holdings since leaving the company in 2014.
McCaleb was part of Ripple’s founding team (then called OpenCoin) in 2012 and received a share of 20 billion XRP distributed to all three founders, including Chris Larsen and Arthur Brito. ..
McCaleb left in 2014 after a fallout with Ripple executives was reported and brought back an entire XRP share, accounting for about 9% of total supply. Later that year, he co-founded rival payment protocol Stellar (XLM).
Fearing a market crash, Ripple Labs and former executives have agreed to lock up his XRP terms if McCaleb offloads his entire holdings at once.
The lockup plan did not allow us to sell more than $ 10,000 a week for XRP during the first year. The plan will loosen over time, and for the next three years he will increase the amount he can offload to $ 20,000 worth of XRP per week.
From 2018 to 2019, a limit will be applied to the number of XRP tokens instead, and his maximum permissible offload will be limited to 1 billion XRP per year.
Since 2020, the amount has been further raised to 2 billion XRP per year.
According to Jed Balance, McCaleb offloaded most of its XRP holdings between January and August 2021. During this period, the price of XRP soared to $ 1.84 in April, offloading 2.74 billion XRP.
